News TV programmes are shown every night and every day throughout a whole year. News programmes need to do this because they need to inform the UK or global public about what is happening in the world, as an example the Islamic State. The news don't only include what is happening in the UK as an example because they also need to feature global if someone is going on holiday to a specific country. Some of the things a news story can include are sport, politics and entertainment related occurrences. By talking about all of these few things the news can protect some people if there has been a killing in someone's local town as well as inform people about football transfers etc. An example of a news programme could be ITV news and weather. In my opinion I think we will always need to have news programmes playing everyday because the public need to be informed by the Media on what is happening in the world weather it be bomb attacks in Ukraine to earthquakes in Nepal. By doing this the News will be able to raise awareness around the world so some people can give them, support by donating etc.
